Grant: Dissemination Events

We will disseminate research findings from the Toronto and Ottawa Supervised Consumption Assessment (TOSCA) study to relevant stakeholders through presentation of findings to relevant stakeholders for feedback regarding messaging, dissemination to the research community, dissemination to key municipal and provincial decision makers, preparation of accessible written materials written at the appropriate literacy level, development of a media strategy, public dissemination events, and development and maintenance of a study website. Given the controversial and politicized nature of our research, our study needs a careful and comprehensive dissemination plan that is accessible and available while also nuanced and thorough. Our goal is to facilitate a broad, evidence-informed policy discussion on the relative merits and disadvantages of supervised consumption sites.
